The article presents the author's critical analysis of the achievements of the U.S. Democratic Party. The author says that despite the continuous cry that each party is nothing more than a potpourri of politicians selected at random, the quadrennial political scientist usually concede that the Democratic Party is the party of the liberals. The recent issue of New York Post warns that the moment is approaching for a full-scale reappraisal of whether the present political divisions of the country make any sense, and whether there can be any great liberal revival as long as liberalism remains essentially wedded to that divided house called the Democratic Party.
